Help with party next door!

Triangle

Hey guys - wonder if I could some opinions asap please!

I live mid terrace house. The house next door has recently had its tenant leave - have spoken to the landlord several times over the past week as he has had to do a lot of work on it, he's a lovely chap.

This evening about 8.00pm his young lad came to the door (16, 17) and said my mum has said to let you know I'm having a few friends round (before it gets re-let) tonight and here's my mobile number if its too loud - how sweet I thought!

Fast forward an hour and a half later - about 30 kids aged about 15-18 are in there - screaming, music blearing but worse of all is the banging - noise really travels without furniture!

The dog is getting stressed, my close friend opposite can hear them and a mate four doors down can't get her kids to sleep. We were outside talking and the young lad came out - we told him and he apologised....but no change!

I don't want to be a party pooper and I know it's still early - however, it's starting to get a bit ridicious - any ideas guys? DH is away for the night which doesn't help - I'm getting stressed all on my own!

Thanks

sometimes these parties get out of hand, try asking the lad if everythin is okay, sometimes they get gatecrashed and the lad might just be out of his depth.
Other than that, dig out a bottle of wine, take a couple of val doonican cds round and join the party, , pretend your drunk, that'll get rid of a few of the little bleeders.

Try it and see what happens.

Thanks McKneff - good idea! However, I have tried ringing and texting - no answer. Went next door - wouldn't answer the door!

Bottles being smashed now and things being thrown into the garden....aaaaah!

Get in touch with his Dad - he sounds like a reasonable chap and may well get this sorted for you.

Sorry I skimmed - I agree, contact his Dad.

With the bottles being smashed, you can contact the police and report it as a 'domestic disturbance' - i.e. it sounds like a fight. They won't touch a noise issue, but if it sounds like it is violent they will come out...

McKneff

If you can contact his dad, do so, tell him you are about to contact police becauseyou are worried about the lads safety
as it sounds as if there is trouble brewing. If dad doesnt answer, dont hesitate, ring the bizzies.

We had a similar issue the other week, i didnt know the owners and things were getting a bit out of control ie, arguing and bottles being smashed and i was worried (and fed up with the noise LOL) and i called the local police station and they sent out the support officers.

Everything calmed down and noone got hurt, might be worth calling and seeing if they can pop by to check.

If you have the dad's number I also think it would be a good idea to phone him, if not then the police is your other option,

hope things get better soon

as it's a saturday and since he told you in advance, i'd have seen if it quietened up by 11.30 and if not, get in touch. if it's a one-off then ringing the police might ruin a relationship (although if it continues after midnight, then go for it to get them to shut up!).

if it happens more reguarly, then have a re-think, but for now, all guns blazing seems like a bit much (even if they are noisy, it is only one night)
